Pediatrics is the branch of medicine that deals with the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. The age limit of such patients ranges from birth to 18. A medical practitioner who specializes in this area is known as a pediatrician. The word pediatrics and its cognates mean "healer of children" in Latin.

Just like other medical specialties, pediatrics requires a medical school education followed by several years of residency in pediatrics or "peds" as it is affectionately called. A pediatrician who wishes to sub-specialize in a particular field like oncology or orthopedics must complete an additional residency in his or her specialty.
